Important Notes
Research proposal may be passed through originality checking software.
Proposal Content
Your research proposal should be approximately 1000 words and should include:
- A working title of the topic area
- The research context
This is the background against which your research will be carried out. It should be a brief introduction outlining the general area of study and identifying the subject area within which your study falls. You should also refer to the current state of knowledge and any recent debates on the subject. You need to reference this in the same way as you would do if you were writing an essay, for example any articles or books you refer to should be footnoted with the full details of author, title, publication date and so on.
- The research issue, aims or questions you intend to address
Against the background provided in the research content above, you need to set out the contribution that your research will make. It is normally best to do this in the form of specific aims or research questions/issues.
- The importance of your proposed research
This section should:
i Demonstrate how your research ‘fills a gap’ in existing research.
ii Explain why your research is important – it is not enough to say that this has not been studied previously, you need to explain why it should be studied, that is why it is interesting/important.
This should be the longest section of your proposal.
